MSP Winter Event #3 – 11/19/14

ELC Winter Event #3

FINAL RECAP 11/19/14

These radar-indicated totals are a little heavier than totals measured on the ground.

SNOW An unexpected little snowfall visited Tuesday night ending just before the commute on Wednesday morning. The radar-indicated totals you see to the right are a little high on this one. We didn’t see much more than ½” at the MSP Airport and throughout the metro. A little heavier to the east with blowing snow.

PLOWABLE? Most areas of the metro received ¼” to ½” of snow. Most areas, this was not a fully plowable event.

WINDS After this storm pushed through, a northwest wind raged causing blowing and drifting snows – especially on east sides of buildings.

COLD This stretch of cold weather we’ve had is one for the records. As of today (11/20) we’ve tied 1911, 1985 and 1996 as the 2nd longest stretch of consecutive November sub-freezing days. Tomorrow looks like it will make it 12 in a row.

THAW There is hope! Saturday will take us above freezing and Sunday to a balmy 40º!!!
